The Ferry. boat Atlantic of the Cooper's
Point Ferry Company, plying between
Vine street, Philadelphia and Vine street,
Camden, N. j., was partially destroyed by
fire last night week. The boat had made its
last day trip and was laid up for the night
in the freight-dock south of the ferry
slip when the fire was discovered. The
crew had only been off the boat about ten
minutes when railroad shop hand dis
covered the FIRE and gave the alarm. The
entire upper portion of the boat was de-
stroyed. She was built by Neafie d Levy

desirable that the conventions in Junt
